The ODISSEU project is designed to enhance the integration of asylum seekers and raise awareness of the refugee crisis among European schools through innovative online gaming and digital tools. Targeting secondary students, ODISSEU aims to develop young people's digital and media literacy competencies, supporting resistance to all forms of discrimination.
At the heart of ODISSEU is a first-person experiential game that guides students through the journey of a young person fleeing oppression in their home country to seeking asylum in a new country. This immersive educational tool not only provides a realistic simulation of the refugee experience but also aligns with key educational priorities to promote empathy, understanding, and critical thinking.
Thorugh the leveraging of digital and interactive learning methods, ODISSEU seeks to create a more inclusive and aware generation, equipped to address and understand the complexities of the refugee crisis. The project underscores the importance of education in combating prejudice and creating a supportive environment for asylum seekers.
